Sugar Sick

What is it about being sick that makes me crave sugar and other food that is in no way good for me?  I have another stupid cold and so far today I've eaten 3 oatmeal raisin cookies,



drank a large Dr. Pepper (from McDonald's),


 and ate a large french fry (also from McDonald's).



I consider myself a pretty healthy eater, but when I'm sick all my good habits go out the window.  I want/need sugar.  The good ole' refined stuff.

Broccoli, apples, bananas, carrots, water......BAD.

Sugar, cookies, cake, hamburgers, soda, french fries........GOOD.

I know it should be the complete opposite but the body wants what the body wants and right now my body wants chocolate.

Mmm....chocolate.
